  1. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    If you show immunity then you are fine, no need for your shot records. In fact, I got my titers before they started requiring them (we had options for records or titers last year) simply because I...
  2. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    You have to be certified (aka take the class and pass a test) in CPR. You will need to take an American Heart Association - Basic Life Support for Healthcare Providers (BLS-HCP) class. You take the...
  3. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    My understanding is that even if you took the class 5+ years ago - it still will be seen as a first attempt and used in the GPA calculation. They require some of the science pre-reqs to be within the...
  4. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    I very much doubt that. If they seriously looked into my old transcripts, then I probably wouldn't have had a chance. If you recently retook the class and make a better grade - they should use that...
  5. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    That would be great! I will see if I can get him in touch with someone from campus. I know they have had UT Health come in before, so I don't see why this would be any
  6. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    Here is information they sent out in August for the Hep B titer and Hep C antibody test (not the other titers): St. Luke's Liver Health Outreach and Baylor Clinic are offering Hepatitis B Titers and...
  7. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    NSNA/TSNA chapter at TWU is a student organization. Joining is not mandatory, but it does have benefits. If you want information about it, the officers are usually at the orientation to introduce...
  8. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    Hey HOU people. Just something to think about - this year (August 2013) there was some changes for us existing students in regards to immunizations. They didn't want shot records, they wanted titer...
  9. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    TWU-HOU students - the follow up information/orientation "packet" will be mailed early next week (probably Monday). Look for it to arrive by mid-week. This will include orientation dates, and BON...
  10. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    Whatever you can afford and are comfortable with. If you are looking for a general stethoscope, you will need a bell and diaphragm for assessment class. Also, I personally wouldn't go with the...

    > Thanks again for the information. I am not sure if you have any kids but for clinical days, would > you happen to know any where that offers before-school care that early? No idea about...
  12. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    Orientation is typically scheduled right before finals – so that means about the first week of December. Finding roommate/housing – sorry no idea there. I will ask around to a couple of people...
  13. TWU Spring 2014 Applicants

    Hey everyone - I just wanted to take a minute and introduce myself. I am a currently a Junior 2 student at TWU Houston, meaning I was in your shoes a year ago (I started classes in January of 2013)....
  14. TWU Fall 2013 Applicants

    Hey everyone and congrats on those that have received the letters and emails so far. Just a quick intro: I am a current Junior 1 at TWU-Houston and about to finish up this first semester. Looks like...
  15. The idea of this topic is to help future applicants get an idea of the scores that got a previous class admitted or wait listed. There isn't much information out there from the school, so I thought...
  16. UTHSC-Houston Spring 2013

    Honestly, I would say you have good stats for TWU. They look at some different things (see the TWU forums), but my stats were similar to yours and I was accepted this semester (wait-listed @ UT)....
  17. TWU Spring 2013 Applicants!

    Thanks for the offer Oo10! I will be attending Houston campus, but I was curious what your extra-curricular (clinicals, etc...) schedule looked like this semester (hours per week, frequency, etc...)....

    No changes yet, still a green
  19. UTHSC-Houston Spring 2013

    No, by all means share the information/link as much as you
  21. TWU Spring 2013 Applicants!

  22. Can someone tell me the straight truth?

    Straight answer? Maybe, just depends. Different schools in the Houston area look at different things; so it all depends on where you are applying. Here is what I know (having been admitted to 2 and...
  23. TWU Spring 2013 Applicants!

    The best information I have heard was there was a little over 900 applicants total and historically the split is about 50/50 for Dallas and Houston. So far I haven't see any published statistical...
